This chicken stroganoff is tender pieces of chicken with mushrooms and onions, all served in a creamy sauce over egg noodles. A dinner time classic that's easy to make and always a crowd pleaser.

Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pan over medium high heat.

Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until browned and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the pan. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes or until tender and browned. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper.
Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add the flour to the pan, and stir to coat the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute.
Add the chicken broth, paprika, Italian seasoning and Worcestershire sauce to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until sauce is thickened.
Stir in the sour cream. Add the chicken back to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until chicken is heated through.
Top the stroganoff with parsley and serve with egg noodles.
Notes
I like chicken thighs for this recipe because they're more tender and flavorful than chicken breasts.
Cut your chicken into bite sized pieces (1-inch pieces). You want them around the same size so they cook in the same amount of time.
Cook your egg noodles in a pot according to package directions when you add the chicken broth to the stroganoff. That way the noodles cook while the sauce simmers.
